From a magnum. Pretty well soiled cork. Seems past its prime, dusty and muted cranberry and cherry, lot of herbal notes and some green pepper on the finish. Little to no tannins left. Still good but most would find it unappealing.
Update: after a few hours open, the green and herbal notes blew off some yielding more fruit and a more approachable wine. Day two it's already turning acidic so I would hesitate to hold on much longer and try to drink it all in one sitting.

No rating. Drank from magnum. I think this is past prime. Initially I wouldn’t serve to guests. A couple nights later, my wife and I found it drinkable, but not Scott Harvey quality. A low 80’s wine.

Always yum. This one was more restrained, baking spices, dusty earth notes, and the core of fig, plum, and blackberry.
